Synopsis:

This title presents a pictorial history of the "City of the Future" throughout the 20th century. The celebrated architectural photographer Julius Shulman (1910-2009) is one of the few image makers to have documented, as well as witnessed, nearly an entire century of Los Angeles history. His captivating photographs serve as a visual record of the dramatic evolution of this diverse metropolis. Shulman's best-known images consist of mid-century views of Modernist domestic interiors, notably the iconic Case Study House Number 22 of 1960. Not as well known but equally powerful are Shulman's images of Union Station and downtown's vintage office buildings, the region's eclectic coffee shops and movie theatres, and the panoramic vistas of the "City of the Future" under construction. This volume presents 60 stunning images and an informative essay exploring Shulman's exceptional talent.

About the Author: Christopher James Alexander is assistant curator of architecture and design at the Getty Research Institute.

Trade Paperback. Condition: New. The American architectural photographer Julius Shulman (1910â"2009) is one of the few image makers to have documented, as well as witnessed, nearly an entire century of Los Angeles history. His captivating photographs serve as a visual record of the dramatic evolution of this exciting and diverse metropolis. Shulmanâs best-known images consist of mid-century views of Modernist domestic interiors, notably the iconic Case Study House #22 of 1960, in which two well-dressed women sit inside the floor-to-ceiling window walls of a Pierre Koenigâ"designed house that seems to float like a spaceship over the light-spangled urban sprawl beyond. Not as well known but equally powerful are Shulmanâs images of Union Station and downtownâs vintage office buildings, the dynamic Wilshire Boulevard corridor, the regionâs eclectic coffee shops and movie theaters, the sweeping canopy of the Century Plaza Hotel, the diverse fabric of L.A.âs residential neighborhoods, and the panoramic vistas of the city of the future under construction. The author selected sixty images from the Getty Research Instituteâs Shulman archive for this elegant book, for which he also wrote an informative essay on the photographerâs exceptional capacity to capture the diverse built environment of Los Angeles.
